Not sure what is built-in, also have not used apcupsd, but nut works
fine with apc gear and will shutdown the system after a configurable
time period or battery charge level.

If you have multiple computers plugged into the same UPS nut has the
ability to have one system monitor the UPS and other systems can get
the UPS status via the network so they can all do an orderly shutdown
if the line power is gone too long.
